Somebody help me out... what the heck does this mean "<3"??
 

I missed this term when it became very net popular... can somebody fill me in to what it means??

I tried searching the forums but "<3" is under 3 characters and cant be searched!

I cant make much sense of what it could possibly mean... and by all means if it is something very obvious, please flame away!! lol.

TIA!

it's a heart

Man, I thought that was a scrotum.

like halx said

be used like this
"I <3 girls"
says "I heart girls"
which means "I love girls"

:p Thanks for asking this question. I wasn't sure either. I actually thought it was boobs or something maybe.

Now I'm really revealing the blonde side of me. Please ignore.

I <3 (. Y .) :D

less than 3

haha, that's how I always read it too. Takes me a second before I realize that makes no sense and it's probably a heart or something.

What the hell does "SO" / "S/o" mean?

Significant Others..?

I <3 Peetster.

Same. I went down the boobies path too. Tragic, huh.

i use <3 alot... Imo k3 is better (an underlined heart :D)

ok, sorry, but I'm lost on that one

its a cup / mug.

i think anyway :p please dont prove me noobish

gutted ... i was hoping it was breasts too :( the context didn't quite fit, but hell you've got to be optimistic in this life

\_/7 is supposed to be a coffee cup ... i had to look it up

This one I've seen almost everywhere on online games but I can't find out what it means: Either a single ^ or a double ^^.. I know that sometimes it refers to what someone said previously but i've also seen it outside that context..
I'm guessing to show supprise or someting (raised eyebrows)..

I <3 (( * )) Y (( * ))

\o/ Do you know what that one is :D

maybe it's a heavy heart or something. I just thought it would be cool to make some cracks

Heres what might happen if the mutual forces between the < and 3 were to be severed
